CULT Food Science Portfolio Company Releases the World's First Cultivated Fish Ball Laksa

TORONTO, - CULT Food Science Corp. ("CULT" or the "Company") (CSE: CULT) (OTC: CULTF) (FRA: LN0), an innovative investment platform with an exclusive focus on cellular agriculture that is advancing the development of novel technologies to provide a sustainable, environmental, and ethical solution to the global factory farming and aquaculture crises, announces that its portfolio company, Umami Meats ("Umami"), successfully revealed the world's first cultivated fish ball laksa on August 30, 2022. Umami is a cellular agriculture start-up company that works to develop sustainable alternatives for traditional fish production.

The cell-based fish balls created by the Umami team are made from cultivated fish. Then, they are supplemented with plant proteins to give them a similar taste and texture to that of traditional fish balls. As a Singapore-based company, it was important to Umami to create a cell-based dish reflective of the country's rich culture and love of delicious food. Heavy industrial fishing, a rapidly growing population, and climate change have resulted in the overuse and depletion of fish availability as well as global food insecurity. On that basis, Umami is forging ahead to make cell-based fish a high-priority solution.1
